CREAM TOAST Let no one presume
to set upon her table milk or cream
toast who is not prepared to make
moderately expensive dish. It's not
worth while to serve such dish at al
unless itsis good. a perfectly cooked
dish Of tream toa't is delicious; mean
ono is at once economical and detcstab'e
First, put in double kettle a scant
pint Of rich milk and teacupful Of
cream; let it come to the boiling point
and add a large tablespoonful OF fresh
butter and u heaping tablespoonful OF
flour or a smaller one Of rrow.root wet
In q little cream Season TO taste with
salt and let it boil up. Meanwhile,
toast light slices or bread a day or two
old. Make it evenly Drowned; If a little
burned, scrape off the burned PARTICLES
with Il knife. See that the slices are Of
even size, with neatly trimmed edgos,
Then put tho alices, two at l. time,
into tho sauce, and as soon as they
soften all tbrough--it only takes q
mOment--transfer them to a covered
dish kept hot in the oven. Pour q little
sauce over each successive layer, going
through the whole operation quickly.
Serve the teast while it is very hot.
This is dish to Tempt fasting saint,
and 1t is one which 1t generally takes a
lady to make. The average cook is sure
to botch 1t. The sauce should be made
of the consistency Of cream. Arrow.
root, 1t should bo remembered, is the
most delicate thickening material in
the world. 1t Is considerably moro ex-
rensiye than -four, however.

THERE were some developments unearthed by the grand jury, but not of the nature anticipated by a few chronic sorcheads, constitution al grnmblers and general malcon- tents. Instead of finding any thing to condemn in the action of the Board of Supervisors whose tenure of office expired with the year 1886, and who were so mercilessly criti- cised, maligned and villified-who were charge,. with misfcasance, malfeasancc and all the other fcasnnces in the calendar, the com- mittec in their report, say that the Chairman is entitled to the thanks and gratitude of the people of Apache county. This, no doubt, will sound queer to our fault-fnd- CTS, and particularly to the Critic. To those, however, who were ac- quaintcd with the members of that body, it will be nothing more than was expected-nothing more than was looked for-in the event of an examination into their conduct by a body of men of intelligence, who were free from bias, uninhuenced by prejudice, and capable of dis corning what was good for the pub lie veal.

A dispatch from Chattanooga, Tenn, of the 1st instant says the semi-annual hegira of Mormon con verts from the Southern States to Utah took place to-day. Chatta- nooga is the Southern headquarters of the Church, and the converts as- sembled here to-day and left to- night almost two hundred strong. They were in charge of John Nor gan. Chief Elder. They came from all Southern States, and the most ignorant and illiterate class of pco- pie. The converts labor under the delusion that Utah Is "a land oi milk and honey" All of the men had large families, and many had only few dollars left after pur- chasing their tickets. There are now two hundred members at work in the South.

UNLESS Ju'igc Wright can come to our relief, and that speedily, there will be such q bill heaped up against the county, for board of prisoners, as will cause our county fathers to open wide their eyes at their next meeting. We do hope that our situation will be so pre- sented to the Judge, that he will make it point to hold his first court in the Territory at St. Johns, and that he will come to stay, un- til we can dispose of all the crimi- nal cases found by the grand jury. There never was community more in need of a court, than our coun- tY is at the present time. Not such terms as we have been cursed with, but one of those "old time" ses- sions, where the Judge would make the lawyers come "to time," and not postpone cases on the slightest and most trivial excuses. We have had enough mock courts, We now want one of the genuine sort, where criminals are made to tremble, and lawyers are taught that they must be mp with their work. or go into trial unprepared. We need a court of this kind, and nothing short will
 afford us any permanent relief, and
 we trust Judge Wright will give 1t
 Co us, and that az soon as possible.

THE Council passed bill in creasing the salaries of the Supreme Justices from $500 to $l,2OO per year. By the bill they are required to hold district court in the respec- five counties of their districts until the dockets are clear, and shall hold no case under advisement for longer period than thirty days. This is good measure, but what authority has the Territory to en- force 1t. Would not the Judges have been more willing 10 carry out the provisions of the bill, if they had increased their salaries to $2 900 per annum. However, we sincerely trust the Supreme Judges will so far regard the interests and consult the welfare of the various counties in their districts as to car ry out the spirit of the bill.

THE present legislature which is just about to adjourn, has kept faithfully to work during its sixty days session, and has cost the ter ritory probably fifty per cent less (than the Thirteenth. which was un- der the usual honesty of a Repub- lican administration. It found no occasion to build for the territory orphan asylums, foundling homes, houses for the incurable and acad- emies, which we would probably have had, had this legislative as- sembly been a repetition of the Thirteenth, but on the other hand they have felt with the poverty stricken taxpayers who are now burdened with the maintenance of "a $1O0,00O insane asylum with probably fifteen insane persons, beautifying some alkali flat, and superb university teaching classics to about six enterprising students, who, enabled to study anciel.t lore. were deprived by the forgetfulness of the noble Thirteenth of $500,- 900 observatory, which would have further enabled them to study the mysteries of Jupiter in Arizona's cloudless skies.
 The Fourteenth has passed many general laws, which are more in demand by the Territory than such luxurious extravagance-economy and good legislation is what they have given the people, and this is what they wanted. However, so far as Apache coxnty's delegation Is concerned, we would like some one to tell us the difference between the present one and the one which represented us in the notorious Thirteenth. If difference there be, it must be like that of discussing the strengthening of an egg shell by an envelope of cobwebs.

A Nogales, Arizona, special of March 9th, says: Last night Dep uty Sheriff James Speed. saw Lieut.. Guitterey with four armed soldiers crossing bridge over a small dry creek into the United States. He immediately called on Henry Lit tlepage and Dr. Hurdy to go with him and see why the armed party should enter the United States. On arriving in front of the American custom house, the Lieutenant of the Mexican troops stopped i'll front of Littlepage, and covering him with a revolver, demanded the re- lease of a Mexican named Rincan, who they supposed the American authorities were holding as a pris- oner, and Littlcpage replied, "I have no prisoners" and immediately snatched a six-shooter out of the Lieutenant's hand and placing him under arrest, the American officers started for the main street of the town. The Lieutenant called on some other Mexican soldiers con- 
 cealed in the dry bed of the creek to release him. They immediately ran to the American officers, and one of the soldiers covering Little page with his rife, demanded the release of his Lieutenant. The Sheriff commanded Littlepage to fire upon the Mexicans, and imme- diately fired himself at the soldier who had Littlepage covered. The soldier had also fired at Littlepage, but Littleplge knocked his gun aside, and at the same time draw ing his revolver fired at the Mexi- can. The firing then became gen. cral between the three officers and the Mexican soldiers, the Mexicans retreating across the international line into Mexico, the American off, cers following and shooting until their weapons were empty. By this time the American population was aroused, and every man who could a weapon, armed himself, expect ing an attack every moment from the Mexican soldiers, who had been ordered out by Colonel Arvizu, their commander, and stationed on the railroad platform in front of the Mexican custom house. The news was brought that one of the Mexican soldiers was mortally wounded. It is stated the cause of the armed men being sent into the United States was for the purpose of compelling a Mexican prostitute, with whom Col. Arvizu had been living, and who had refused to CO., habit with him any longer, to re- turn, and upon being discovered by the officers they made a bold bluff to cover up their intentions. Acting United States Consul W. B. Grozclaz has taken the matter in hand, and this morning made de-
